Vanity

Good Morning Brilliant and Excellent People,

I look forward to sharing with you Brilliant and Excellent tips for attaining your goals and fulfilling your Purpose.

Today, I will like to share a thought on the word Vanity. Solomon accomplished so much and acquired much wealth in life. He tasted all that could be tasted and concluded that all is vanity.

A life without a driven purpose or purpose not periodically reviewed may also lead to vanity. So much energy, wealth and resources will be concentrated on immaterial things that may lead to Solomon’s definition of vanity.

Accomplishment comes with defined goals and specific purposes.

When these purposes are achieved, then comes fulfillment.  However, when one purpose is achieved, there is still a room for emptiness in the mind which desire more accomplishments. This implies that purpose in life is neither static nor definite. I am sure you have heard people say “there is room for improvement even at the best performance”

You should create time to review your purpose periodically and set new goals considering your growth and status.

Solomon choose to marry so many wives and had so much concubines after he achieved part of his purpose. He could as well done a very good review and set other goals that will engage both his wisdom, wealth and strength.

Find time to engage in evaluating your accomplishment and review your goals. This makes you concentrate your energy positively rather than having the feelings of accomplishment only.
